Chapter 357: Money to Buy Life
Xie Chong picked up a bag of silver some time ago and made a fortune. He thought he would be lucky. Unexpectedly, after picking up the silver, he became increasingly unlucky. Falling to the ground, it is commonly said that even drinking cold water will choke your teeth.
Forget about the constant misfortunes, just yesterday, when he passed by a shop, the amulet he had put in his arms when he was in trouble suddenly became extremely hot. He hurriedly stopped and took it out, and as a result, an amulet flew out of the shop. A sharp arrow almost flew past the tip of his nose.
The arrow hit the door frame of the shop opposite, but the amulet in his hand spontaneously ignited and turned into ashes.
Xie Chong looked at the trembling arrow with its tail in horror, and at the peace amulet that turned into ashes and flew everywhere. Thinking of the constant disasters in recent days, Xie Chong couldn't help but scream and ran towards the unusual position.
If he takes one step forward, the arrow will shoot right through his neck, killing him to death.
Xie Chong arrived in a panic and said, but the shop was closed and he didn't dare to leave. He huddled in front of the shop all night. Finally, when the shop opened and the master didn't come, he still didn't dare to leave. Instead, wait in front of the door.
Now that Qin Liuxi has arrived, Xie Chong is so aggrieved that his tears and nose are running, and he begs Qin Liuxi for help.
He is really unlucky!
When he entered the extraordinary passage, he was still shivering and his face was full of panic. His face was unshaven, not to mention very haggard.
When Qin Liuxi saw this, he asked Chen Pi to bring him a peace charm.
Xie Chong's eyes lit up and he pinched it quickly. He looked at Qin Liuxi eagerly, swallowed and said, "Master, what strange thing has happened to me? The talisman you gave me has been burned. I hid." Does a death disaster mean that this bad luck is gone? "
Qin Liuxi sneered: "You accepted life money from others. If you don't die, how can you call it life money?"
"How can I not!" Xie Chong jumped up.
Qin Liuxi: "Didn't you say that you picked up a bag of silver?"
Xie Chong was stunned, his face turned white inch by inch, trembling, and said: "I, I just picked it up on the roadside, how did I know what kind of life money it is? Oh my God, Master, I really picked it up. , If I knew it, I wouldn’t pick it up even if I was killed. Master, you must save me. I still have an old lady waiting for me to take care of her, so I can’t die.”
He said and started crying again.
Xie Chong was a prodigal, but because he was raised by a widowed mother, his conscience was not lost and he was filial to his mother.
"Stop crying!" Qin Liuxi dug his ears irritably and said, "It's so annoying for a grown man to cry!"
Xie Chong immediately covered his mouth. He was so wronged. He was about to die. Why not let him cry?
Woohoo.
"The money is gone? When did you pick it up? Where did it go?" Qin Liuxi asked.
Xie Chong was a little embarrassed, but in order to save his life, he told the whole story about the money he picked up: "Except for buying some quilts and clothes for my mother for the winter and adding some household items, I lost everything in the bet. "
Chen Pi said: "Look, you don't even look rich in clothes. You got a windfall from heaven. You didn't use it to do anything to make money. You just gambled it all away. Your mother didn't break your feet!"
Xie Chong touched his nose: "Don't you think that I have picked up the silver and am getting lucky? Who knew this was the case? Master, how can you buy my life with just a bag of silver? My birth date is not revealed yet. Going out."
"This can also be regarded as a substitute for a life. Presumably the person is seriously ill or dying soon, so he found an evil way to cast this spell. If you pick it up, it means that you have received money and are willing to sacrifice your own life for the other person's life. , what is your birth date?" Qin Liuxi asked.
Xie Chong was sweating and told her his birthday.
Qin Liuxi pinched his knuckles and counted, raised his eyebrows, looked at his face carefully, and said: "In addition to the amulet I gave you, you also escaped death once, because your merits were transformed into you."
Xie shouted: "What kind of merit?"
"What good things have you done since you got this money?"
Xie Chong tilted his head and thought for a while, then suddenly said: "Does it count if I paid for medicine to a mother and her son?"
Qin Liuxi nodded with a smile on his face.
Xie Chong regained his breath and said quickly: "I picked up the money that day and immediately wanted to go to the gambling house. When I was passing by Shicun Alley on West Street, I saw a woman in rags holding a sick man who was about to die. The child was kneeling at the door of the hospital. They didn't have money to pay for the ten taels of medicine, so I helped pay for it because I was so excited. "
Afterwards, he immediately went to the gambling house. Thinking of his mother, he quickly bought some things to send home before going to the gambling house. Unexpectedly, he lost all his money and regretted the twelve taels of medicine at that time.
"This is the merit you have accumulated. It was your momentary kindness that saved your life." Qin Liuxi said: "If you had not helped the mother and son that day, you would not have accumulated this merit, and you would not have been able to save your life." If you block a fatal disaster, you won’t have a chance to meet me.”
Everyone is dead, so what's the use?
Xie Chong was a little confused and murmured: "I just see them as pitiful. I was also raised by a widowed mother. When I saw them thinking about their childhood, I suddenly became interested, but I didn't expect..."
Chen Pi said at this time: "Your only good luck is obtained by doing good deeds, so in the future, you should accumulate yin virtue and do more good deeds."
Xie Chong pursed his lips.
Qin Liuxi said: "Where's the cloth wrapped with silver? Did you throw it away too?"
Xie Chong shook his head, touched his body, took out a piece of cloth from his sleeve, handed it over, and said with a smile: "I see that this cloth is quite new, I might as well take it back and patch it up for my mother."
Chen Pi rolled his eyes: "You are so filial, why don't you give your mother the money to keep?"
Xie Chong smiled awkwardly.
Qin Liuxi took it and said, "This is Xiaobu, can't you recognize it?"
Xie Chong's eyes widened.
Qin Liuxi flattened the cloth again and saw a spell drawn on the cloth, which seemed to be drawn with blood. It looked particularly ominous.
Xie Chong picked up the silver at that time and opened it to find a few ingots of silver and a few banknotes tied with red threads. He untied it directly and put the banknotes in his pocket without checking more. Now that he saw the charm, he My back felt cold and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
"Master, what kind of blood is this? It doesn't look like cinnabar." Chen Pi also took a look.
Qin Liuxi said: "It should be the blood of the black cat."
Black cats are ominous and are the perfect match for drawing spells and doing sorcery.
"Master, I have spent all the money to buy my life. Can this technique still be broken? You must save me!" Xie Chong rubbed his hands and said: "My mother only has one son, and she relies on me to support her in her old age. It’s over.”
Qin Liu leaned towards the west and said, "This technique can be broken, but you also know that my store is open for business. It is a business, a purchase and a sale."
She threw the filial piety cloth with the charm on it casually on the table and said: "As long as twenty taels of silver, I will save you, and it must be the silver you earned honestly."
